Gas Valve
Does anyone know where i can get the allen head screw that goes in the gas valve test ports…comes out with a 3/32" allen wrench….need a couple replacements….gas valve is a White Rodgers 36J24-205… Thanks in advance…

Doesn't a 1/8" pipe thread fit in there, such as what would be used for a manometer hose barb connection?

Nah, these are li'l Allen setscrews ground to a point. The secret is that you don't remove them, just crack them a turn or so. That'll be plenty to check pressures (but not purge air, not that I would ever do that…)
I'm afraid that the only replacement source that I know of is a donor valve. I used to keep a few of those, and the ⅛" plugs, on hand from when I condemned a valve.

If you figure out what size they are you can probably order them from mcmaster-carr.

i agree on the donor valve…but need someone who has one…and yes they are tapered at the bottom so they can seal.
thx.

You even get your choice of tip angle.
Trying to squeeze the best out of a Weil-McLain JB-5 running a 1912 1 pipe system.
